Jung Myung Sa

Buddhist Temple

Good Buddhism with Good People for a Better World

Jogye Order of Korean Buddhism

We would like to share our knowledge and wisdom that has been nourished by Korean Buddhism of a long and rich history.

Since 1994

Jung Myung Sa is a Buddhist Temple affiliated to Jogye Order of Korean Buddhism. Being located in Flushing, Queens, New York, it was founded by Ven. Gilsang for Korean immigrant Buddhists and other people living in New York.

Relocation 1997

Later, in order to better facilitate our practice, Jung Myung Sa was moved to the current location with the help of Master Chung-hwa sumin, who wrote the calligraphy of  the temple signboard, Jung Myung Sa (淨命寺).

Reopening 2008

In completing Ven. Gilsang’s 1000 days retreat and prayer, Jung Myung Sa was reopened with the new three stories modern building that was possible through helps and supports of Korean Buddhist community.

Present

Until now, we have mainly focused on  Korean Buddhist community. In addition to this, we are currently looking forward to having our English services for American people and other immigrations.
